Luke 21:20-26

20“When you see armies camped around Jerusalem, realize that the time is near for it to be destroyed.

21Then those of you in Judea should flee to the mountains. Those of you in Jerusalem should leave it. Those of you in the fields shouldn’t go back into them.

22This will be a time of vengeance. Everything that is written about it will come true.

23“How horrible it will be for women who are pregnant or who are nursing babies in those days. Indeed, the land will suffer very hard times, and its people will be punished.

24Swords will cut them down, and they will be carried off into all nations as prisoners. Nations will trample Jerusalem until the times allowed for the nations ⌞to do this⌟ are over.

25“Miraculous signs will occur in the sun, moon, and stars. The nations of the earth will be deeply troubled and confused because of the roaring and tossing of the sea.

26People will faint as they fearfully wait for what will happen to the world. Indeed, the powers of the universe will be shaken.
